I have been fortunate in finding a small quantity of super premium cigars rich with plume. Plume used to cover one entire side of my humidor, but has diminished to almost none. I am trying to nurture this plume and re-seed my humidor with plume, but have no idea what conditions to maintain in order to encourage the growth and propagation of plume. When my humidor was rich with it, all of my cigars, even mid-priced ones tasted great. Any help you can offer would be much appreciated. My cell phone is 425-999-1009, and email is josephgagnondesign@gmail.com. Thanks so much for your prompt response.

[...] Re: Newbie Question About Cigars In Tubes Make sure to check if the white spots are fuzzy or not, if its fuzzy its mold. If it is, I would just wipe it off and keep them separate from your other stash just to make sure you wont contaminate your other sticks. Heres a link to further help you out.

I keep seeing pictures of mold on this forum. I'm becoming a little confused, what I've thought is bloom in pictures is turning out to be mold. What does plume look like? Mold is blotchy and fuzzy. Bloom/plume is a fine dusting almost like supper small sugar crystals. If you look closely, mold has spores (fuzzy) and blooms is a crystal.
